Episode notes
Stick To Your Dominant Ball Shape
- Use your dominant ball shape that gives the tightest dispersion most of the time.
- Test which shape produces tighter shot patterns and make that your primary strategy rather than forcing a non-dominant shape.
Algorithms Fuel Conflicting Voices
- YouTube and social platforms create a relevancy and continuity problem for learners.
- The algorithm feeds more content, causing golfers to sample many voices and never commit long enough to see a change.
Follow One Coach's Philosophy
- If you follow online instruction, pick one trusted coach and stick with their philosophy.
- Avoid sampling many different teachers because multiple voices create competing swing thoughts and reduce effectiveness.
